¾ cup granulated sugar
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 cups fresh Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
¾ cup salted caramel sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and ¼ cup sugar. Press this mixture into the bottom of a springform pan.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually mix in the remaining sugar and sour cream until fluffy.
Gently fold in the sliced apples. Pour half of the cheesecake mixture over the crust, drizzle with half of the caramel sauce, then layer with the remaining cheesecake mixture.

Serve chilled with additional caramel drizzled on top.
